On May 2nd, our class will be heading to the Green Music Center at Sonoma State University. We'll be meeting the symphony. We may also be playing our recorders with the symphony on the song Ode to Joy.

Parking will cost $5 per vehicle, and I have free tickets for some chaperones.

We're in need of drivers. Your vehicle must be checked out by the MUSD bus barn, so now is the time to set up an appointment. Please contact me if you're able to drive, and let me know how many students you can transport.

Our 2nd Word Masters Challenge is complete. There was a tie for 1st place between Charlotte Leonard, Cadence Henry, and Henry Thomas who each scored 18/20! Stasha Leonard and Jessica Ahlstedt-Schisler tied for 4th place with 16 points each! Five students scored 15 points (River, Wyatt, Trinity, Colby, and Shae). The overall results demonstrate to me that our class has worked hard, and has a really strong understanding of analogies. Congratulations class!

Report cards will be distributed at Parent Teacher Conferences. I look forward to discussing your child's progress. Please be prompt for your appointment. I have 22 conferences scheduled, many of which are back to back. If you are late or miss your appointment time, we'll have to reschedule.

Please
just the Science Fair judging rubric to
evaluate your child’s project with them. It can be found on my website.

Each night, have your child HAVE YOUR
CHILD PRACTICE THEIR PRESENTATION WITH AN AUDIENCE. Parents are welcome to sit
in on presentations Thursday.They
usually take all day.

Have your child
BRING THEIR PROJECT TO THE CLASSROOM Thursday morning.

All projects should be picked up at the end
of the science fair.

We're working on an art project which will be posted on the Original Works website. You'll be able to purchase t-shirts and other items with your child's art on it as a way to help our school support 6th grade Science Camp. I'll let you know when your child's art is available to view on their website.
